Getting to Oakland A's Game
 
We arrive at SF International at 10:30 AM and want to get to the A's game in Oakland that begins at 12:15 PM. Our hotel is at Fisherman's Warf. The BART blue line seems to go directly to the ballpark from SF International. The problem is what to do with luggage. Are there storage places in the BART stations? Can this be done?

I have never seen luggage storage at a BART station.

If you don't want to go all the way to your hotel to drop your bags off you might exit at Embarcadero Station and go to the Hyatt Regency (across the street) and tip the bell hop to hold your bags until you return.

When you exit BART (Blue Line - destination Dublin/Pleasanton from SF)at the Oakland Coliseum all you do is cross a sky bridge and you'll be at the stadium.

I know there is a storage at SFO, there was a discussion, I'll try to find.

There is no storage at BART.

Here is the SFO storage discussion:

If your hotel is at Fisherman's Wharf, you aren't going to want to leave your luggage at the airport, go to the game, then have to return to pick up luggage. Follow frank_and_beans advice and drop bags at the Hyatt. When you get back on BART take either the Dublin/Pleasanton line or the Fremont line (same platform--check overhead signs) as they both stop at the Colesium/Oakland Airport stop.
